Gore Vidal was the first person to find out Susan Sarandon was pregnant with her daughter Eva Amurri Martino. The novelist told Vanity Fair’s Judy Balaban before his death last year that he met Sarandon in 1972 on the set of his play “An Evening With Richard Nixon.” The actress found out she was pregnant while filming a movie in Italy, where Vidal had a home. Sarandon said. “I was staying with them and bought the kit in town, so he [was] the first to know when the test was positive.” Eva’s father is director Franco Amurri.
